The Strypes: ‘Our album will include covers like an early Stones LP’

Irish newcomers tell NME about their upcoming debut album backstage at Glastonbury

WATCH: Speaking backstage at Glastonbury, The Strypes tell NME that their album is “99% done” and will feature mainly original material and a couple of covers. “Rhythm and Blues bands, it’s what they do. Dr Feelgood or The Stones, it’s what they all did. There’s nothing wrong with it,” the band insist.
